TracyMoss Report post Posted February 27, 2008 I just made this business card display case. I will probably assemble the next one a little different, but I had the idea in my head and it doesn't always work the way you want it to. Just thought I would share my latest little idea, although, I know it isn't that original. TM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HARVEY Report post Posted February 27, 2008 Very handsome, indeed? Are you comfortable posting the pattern/instructions to make it? Harvey Lutske Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TracyMoss Report post Posted February 27, 2008 I don't use patterns very much. I just get an idea and create whatever I am thinking. Perhaps, I wouldn't make as many mistakes, but I learn things by default. I will try to make a pattern, but the box which holds the business card is kind of a spin off from the briefcases I make. I am going to do it a little different next time, but when I come up with a good system I will let you know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCOUTER Report post Posted February 27, 2008 Tracy, What a great idea... Beautiful work- That will really draw someones attention! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TracyMoss Report post Posted February 27, 2008 As long as they don't see the back! The picture frame look in the back was an after thought since it was too top heavy and I should probably shorten it a little bit, but I guess it might work for some brochures as well.

Don101 Report post Posted February 27, 2008 Tracy i like the idea very much and it looks good too, how did you secure the back?, Don Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomSwede Report post Posted February 27, 2008 That's a really fancy display, never thought of that. Now I want one too and a portable one for the pocket aswell. Both themed up together. Nice basketwaving. I admire that but never have time to practice it. The backsupport seem to be a good idea that reduces time with needle and thread.

bustedlifter Report post Posted February 27, 2008 Neato, it really pops! The only drawback could be that people get lost looking at the holder and forget to take a card. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Knotnutz Report post Posted February 27, 2008 (edited) Um, Tracy - that is one gorgeously stunning piece of work. So, what would it take for me to get one similar (but slightly shorter back) on it???? Apart from begging, whining, snivelling, pleading and parting with folding stuff, that is!

TracyMoss Report post Posted February 27, 2008 (edited) Well you could make your own. As for not parting with the folding stuff, my charities are limited to particular local causes. Don, I cut the back so thatt when I folded it out it would work like a picture frame and then I added a piece of leather to fill in the space and fold out to the other flap and I sewed the two flaps together. Howver, next time i will devise a neater looking design. Edited February 28, 2008 by TracyMoss Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
